Meetings, agendas and minutes

Tewkesbury Borough Council has 38 councillors who are elected to
form the council and serve the community.

We are a fourth option authority which runs an executive and
scrutiny political structure. This structure has been in place
since November 2007 and was reviewed in April 2009.

Following the elections in May 2015 the Council's political
make-up consists of 33 Conservative Members; two Liberal Democrat
Members; two Independent Group Members; and one non-aligned
Member.

The leader of the council is councillor Dave Waters
(conservative) and the deputy leader is councillor Rob Bird
(conservative). The leader and deputy leader are elected at the
annual council meeting in May and are automatically the chair and
vice-chair of the executive committee.
